Help finding yarn

Some of Hobbii's color changing yarns come in 1000m.
Thank you so much. I just knew that someone would have advice like this. I'll take a look.
Oh, those are very pretty skeins! Thank you.
You should check out Alize Bella Ombre Batik! It’s only one color transition but it’s a 900m long gradient which is really pretty.
That sounds perfect. I'll see if there's a way to get my hands on something like that.
Looks like I can order on Amazon easily enough. Going to see if I can get it more locally though, and leave that for a last resort.
Thanks!
Can your local yarn shop just order the yarn used by the pattern creator?
I hadn't even considered asking. It's a Michael's craft shop, so I assumed they just stock whatever corporate HQ tells them to. But the people who work there are passionate and if there's a way for it to happen they'd be happy to let me know, I'm sure. Thanks.
If they can’t, email the creator and ask where they got their supplies. Or search for a yarn store online that’s willing to ship it.
Where there’s a will…. :)
Maybe Etsy would have some good options? One thing to be aware of is that some of the color changing yarns don't have a smooth ombre transition like in your link even when they say they do. I've been fooled by some of the yarns at Michaels before.
